This is Marlene, instead of all the things I should have done today, I made her. Her page at Ravelry.

I think I am going to finish The Book Thief today. Has anyone read the new Jodie Picoult book Nineteen Minutes? It has good reviews, but then, I have so many of her books still waiting to be read.

Rumours are, that we should finish Daily Dare over at Neopets by today (or was it yesterday). I beat AA 25 times so far, but I have serious problems with beating AA at Merca Chase, Ultimate Bullseye, Turmac Roll, Attack of the Gummy Dice and Dubloon Disaster. Damn. I thought the hardest was done in finally scoring over 700 at Kiko Match. Argh. I wanted the AA trophy!

I had an “odd” experience. Odd, amazing, weird, unusual… Lately, I have been missing my parents A LOT again. I have no idea what triggered it, but the longing is strong, and painful. Days are long, and everything is just a bit harder again. On my mailrounds I meet a lot of dogs. When I am off my postal bike, some come and smell, but most of them, stay away. On Thursday though, a dog came to me while I was on my bike, and she didnt leave. At one point she sat infront of my bike and didnt want to let me go on. Most of all, she was close to me, and didnt want to leave. Nothing like this has ever happened to me. And now guess her name. Sissi. Which was my Moms name. The dog even had Sissi written on a heart, which was attached to the collar. My Mom loved dogs a lot. I take this as my personal sign from above, in a desperate state of need.

Back to Uni tomorrow. Ewww. 👿
